Short Description:&nbsp Two not-so-easy pieces for Math Awareness Month

More information:

In celebration of Math Awareness Month, we are holding a contest at the
Student Center of the New Mathwright
Library and Cafe. We will give
free 1-year subscriptions to the Library to the
first five visitors who solve the
two problems we posed there.
One is fairly easy, and the other is more
difficult. We will leave it to you to
decide which is which.
These problems were chosen
because they illustrate and celebrate the
historical fascination with the relations
between number and geometry
that has long inspired mathematical development
in many areas of research.
